Seaside Sojourn – Halifax & Prince Edward Island

About this cruise

There's a reason 8-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Norfolk on October 17, 2026 and visits Halifax, Prince Edward Island and Sydney. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. Lighthouses, clam chowder, and cold Atlantic air. The East Coast at its most itself. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Carnival Sunshine keeps you well fed. 15 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. 8 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
